8 IBM Terms of Use Service Level Agreement Appendix B IBM provides the following availability service level agreement ( SLA ) for the IBM SaaS as specified in a PoE. The SLA is not a warranty. The SLA is available only to Client and applies only to use in production environments. 1.1 Availability Credits Client must log a Severity 1 support ticket with the IBM technical support help desk within 24 hours of first becoming aware of an event that has impacted the IBM SaaS availability. Client must reasonably assist IBM with any problem diagnosis and resolution. A support ticket claim for failure to meet an SLA must be submitted within three business days after the end of the contracted month. Compensation for a valid SLA claim will be a credit against a future invoice for the IBM SaaS based on the duration of time during which production system processing for the IBM SaaS is not available ( Downtime ). Downtime is measured from the time Client reports the event until the time the IBM SaaS is restored and does not include time related to a scheduled or announced maintenance outage; causes beyond IBM s control; problems with Client or third party content or technology, designs or instructions; unsupported system configurations and platforms or other Client errors; or Client-caused security incident or Client security testing. IBM will apply the highest applicable compensation based on the cumulative availability of the IBM SaaS during each contracted month, as shown in the table below. The total compensation with respect to any contracted month cannot exceed 10 percent of one twelfth (1/12th) of the annual charge for the IBM SaaS. 1.2 Service Levels Availability of the IBM SaaS during a contracted month Availability during a contracted month Compensation (% of monthly subscription fee* for contracted month that is the subject of a claim) < 99.0% 2% < 97.0% 5% < 95% 10% * If the IBM SaaS was acquired from an IBM Business Partner, the monthly subscription fee will be calculated on the then-current list price for the IBM SaaS in effect for the contracted month which is the subject of a claim, discounted at a rate of 50%. IBM will make a rebate directly available to Client. Availability, expressed as a percentage, is calculated as: the total number of minutes in a contracted month minus the total number of minutes of Downtime in a contracted month divided by the total number of minutes in the contracted month. Example: 500 minutes total Downtime during contracted month 43,200 total minutes in a 30 day contracted month 500 minutes Downtime = 42,700 minutes 43,200 total minutes = 2% Availability credit for 98.8% availability during the contracted month i (10/2016)i _ doc Page 8 of 8
